We bought our admission tickets in advance and I also paid for the all day eating ticket. The all day eating ticket was $35 per person. Figured that it wasn't a bad price and probably cheaper in the long run.
Since the park was across the street we just walked. We ate breakfast at the coffee shop, just muffins and coffee since we would eat in the park. It was very cloudy but wasn't bad when we walked. Rain was called for today. Got our tickets and eating tickets then we went to figure out what to see first.
While we were figuring out our map that is when it started to rain. It rained all day long. At least is was a warm rain. We still had fun despite the rain.
This park is bigger than San Diego, has more shops and eating places, real restaurants. The only ride we were interested in was the Penguin Encounter. They don't have this one in San Diego. We used our fast pass which was nice. Got loaded into the little car then waited. We had to get out, got another pass until they could fix the problem.
We wandered around some more, then decided to eat since we had paid for our dining stuff. We were really hungry but ate anyway. For her birthday dinner we wanted to go somewhere nice that served adult beverages. The only one that fit this criteria was Shark Reef, naturally this was not a participating restaurant for the all day dining. Went and made a reservation, they closed at 6:00 pm since the park closes at 7:00 pm. Made our reservation at 4:30, that way we had enough time to make the Shamu Show at 6:00 pm.
We didn't really get our $35 worth of eating out of the deal, but we would have if not for Jennifer's special day.
The only shows we watched were the Shamu Show and the Dolphin Show and they are the same ones as we see in San Diego.
All in all we had a good time, got back to the condo then we went down to the pool to soak in the hot tub after a full day of walking. That was nice.
Here are a few photos of our fun.

Will have to go back sometime so I can eat with the sharks too. That looks awesome.
